English translation of Urdu poetry couplets of Anonymous litterateur of Social Media # 191
☆ Contentment… ☆
सब्र की एक बात
बहुत ही अच्छी होती है…
जब आ जाता है तो किसी चीज़
की तलब नहीं रह जाती है..!
☆☆
One Godsend felicity of
the contentment is that
when it comes then there remains
no desire for anything else!
☆ Puzzling Doubt… ☆
जाते जाते ही सही …
ये मलाल रह गया,
क्या उसे भी इश्क था…
ये सवाल रह ही गया ..!
☆☆
One melancholy kept on niggling me
even while being separated,
This puzzling doubt kept tormenting me
if he was also in love with me..!
☆☆☆☆☆
इंतजार की हद भी
अजीब होती हैं,
ना दरवाजा बंद होने देती है
और ना आँखें…!
☆☆
The limit of waiting is
too strange, neither it
Permits shutting of door
nor allows closing of eyes
☆☆☆☆☆
डर लगता है इजहार करने से
इतने क़रीब हो तुम…
कि ज़िंदगी बदल देगा मेरी
तुम्हारा इंकार भी, इकरार भी…
☆☆
I’m too scared to disclose my love
B’coz you’re so intimately close that
It’ll change my life forever, whether
it’s your refusal or acceptance..!
